Many models have been used to characterize dispersion of fluids in flowing systems. Some account for both transverse and longitudinal dispersion, while others account for longitudinal dispersion alone. Inaddition, thevariety of experimental tracer methods used to find the parameters of the models ma

✦ Synopsis
Part I of this paper discussed methods for experimentally finding dispersion coefficients for each of the two important classes of dispersion models. We treated the models as if they were completely separate. Now these models are interrelated and are also related to the more general models which do not assume plug flow and constant values for dispersion coefficients. However, in some cases certain conditions must be satisfied for the relationships between models to hold. The purpose of this paper is to consider these'interrelationships and restrictions, thus justifying the use of the simpler models in place of the more cumbersome ones.

## Abstract Fourteen popular, representative infiltration models, some physically based, some semi‐empirical and some empirical, were selected for a comparative evaluation. Using the Nash and Sutcliffe efficiency criterion, the models were evaluated and compared for 243 sets of infiltration data co
The generalization of the parameters of rainfall-runoff models, to enable application at ungauged sites, is an important and ongoing area of research. This paper compares the performance of three alternative methods of generalization, for two parameter-sparse conceptual models (PDM and TATE), specif
Melting in screw extruders has been studied extensively, starting with the experimental studies of Maddock and Street in the 1950s. These workers observed a melting model with the solid particles all clumped together in a solid bed. A thin melt film separated the solid bed from the extruder barrel;
